Abstract

In this study, for the purpose of determining the attitudes of nurses and nursing undergraduate students towards the nursing profession, the validity and reliability study was tried to be performed for the "Kolorta Nursing Attitude Scale." In the study, the experiment form consisting of 45 expressions was applied to a sample of 1034 participants, of which 76.3% were female, 43.4% were nurses, and 56.6% were nursing students. The scale validity and reliability study consisted of the steps of examination of the theoretical structure, obtainment of the work permit, the stage of item writing, the language and psychometric controls, the pilot application for the item selection, obtainment of an expert opinion, creation of the experiment form and its application to the sample, validity and reliability, and finalization of the scale. The validity of the scale was determined by examining the structural validity and internal validity of the scale. Factor analysis was used to determine the structural validity, and 27% subgroup and supergroup comparison was used to determine the internal validity. In order to test the reliability of the scale, the Cronbach’s alpha reliability coefficient and test-retest consistency were calculated. The developed “Kolorta nursing attitude scale” consists of 3 sub-dimensions and 23 items, and it can explain 61.6 of the total variance for nursing attitudes. The total score of the scale ranges from 23 to 115, and the increase in score means a positive attitude towards nursing. The general Cronbach’s alpha reliability coefficient of the scale was calculated as .90, which indicates high reliability. According to the results, it is observed that the “Kolorta nursing attitude scale,” of which validity and reliability study was performed for the purpose of measuring attitudes towards nursing, can perform measurements in a valid and reliable way.
